But then those people add 2 + 2 and get frustrated because they can't do the obvious ;) I find it all but obvious to being able to use non-local, non-global variables in PHP. It's one of the main PHP points IMHO that a variables is either local or explicitely accessed through $_GLOBALS (or super globals). It gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling that I know everything else is undefined and won't clash.Which seems to fit Andi's $_SCOPE proposal.
Is that like "enterprise" examples? ;) Regards, MichaelPlain old google brought up: http://groovy.codehaus.org/Martin+Fowler's+closure+examples+in+Groovy among other hits (Groovy syntax should be easy enough to follow). He said real-life examples (-:CIf somebody has a real-life demonstrated NEED for the closures/scoping, by all means, bring it up.
